Trustee opening for 2020-21 school year

​The Perrysburg Orchestra Boosters will have a Trustee position opening up for the 2020-2021 school year. We are looking for someone who appreciates the orchestra program and who is willing to give their best effort to be an active and engaged part of keeping the program moving forward. If this sounds like you, please reach out and let me know that you would be interested in serving for the upcoming school year.​ABOUT THE POSITION: The Trustee position is an "at large" position, meaning that this person serves in a general capacity, holds voting rights, and is considered one of the five members of the Board of Directors. My hope for the Trustee in the upcoming year is that he or she will take this time to learn the ropes and get a feel for POB and its support of the Perrysburg orchestra program.EXPECTATIONS: Support POB Efforts – This can look like a lot of things. Basically, there are five board members who are responsible for overseeing and executing POB’s efforts to support the orchestra program. We try to focus on utilizing the strengths and interests of each of our members to make sure our efforts are a success.Attend regular meetings - As a board, we typically hold one meeting per month through the school year, alternating between public and executive meetings. The meetings last about an hour, generally speaking. As a member of the board, the Trustee would be expected to do their best to attend these meetings. Of course, we understand that absences sometimes cannot be helped. We are simply asking that you commit to give your best. In addition to our regular meetings (described above), we do hold one or two meetings that focus specifically on setting the course for our upcoming school year, as well as setting and approving the budget.

TERM: There is no set term. You can try it for a year to see if you like it. If not, you step down, and we fill the vacant spot again next year. If you love it, you can stick around and continue to serve, or perhaps move into a different board position if one becomes available. We only ask that you do your best to commit to serving for the school year.WHAT’S NEXT: We will be holding a vote for the Trustee position at our May 6th public meeting. The nominating committee will recommend a nomination from the names submitted. Nominations may also be taken from the floor at the meeting.
